Burnt-in edge Variation

Posted in Tips by Dave Cross on the July 7th, 2006

Soon after the book was at the printer, I came up with another way to add a burnt-in edge effect to a photo. This one offers the additional option of adding a color toning effect.
Here’s how it works:

Step one:
Make a Marquee selection of any size, then add a Hue/Saturation Adjustment layer.

Step two:
Click the Colorize button and change the Hue and Saturation slider to get the color tone that you want.
Hue/Sat adjustment

Your image should look something like this:

Step three:
Add an Inner Glow and change the Blend mode to Normal, the Color to a dark shade, and then play with the Size and Contour to get the effect you want. Here are the settings I used:

Step four:
The layer mask should still be active but if it isn’t, click on it, and then fill it with white. The Inner Glow should now appear at the edges of the photo.

Variation:
Here I double-clicked on the adjustment layer and turned off Colorize, and slightly lowered the opacity of the Inner Glow.

One of the things I like about this technique (similar to technique #34 in the book) is that you can drag and drop the effect to another image and then just fill the layer mask with white to match the size of the photo.

    Good
    I don’t mean to be harsh with the previous statement, but really, that’s the way it should be. Levitra or Viagra doesn’t do anything to normal individuals. They are for those who have trouble promoting or keeping erection at all. So unless your doctor says that you do have an erectile dysfunction, then do not take the drug. discount sildenafil generic
    Bye !!

    Good day
    Some men have trouble getting an erection in the first place, while others have difficulty keeping one. And these problems may occur frequently or just occasionally. natural
    Goodluck!!!
